The encore Running order/script
Good afternoon, my name is Esme, welcome to the encore show on stratcast.co.uk in today’s show we are going to discus and sample some of your favourite musicals. We are going to start our show with a number from the incredible musical mamma mia. Here is the cast’s version of _______________.
You’re listening to the children in need edition of the encore show on stratcast.co.uk. That was from the musical, mamma mia. Musicals have always been popular with any age group and there are more musicals currently showing in the west end than we have time to talk about but there is one show that has astounded its audiences for the past 25 years and last month performed at the O2 arena in London with a incredible cast of over 300 actors and musicians, from les miserables this is Stars.
Welcome back to The Encore Show with me Esme Horne that was Stars from les mis and Electricity from Billy Eliot. The producers of Billy Elliot have recently announced that they are extending there Billy youth theatre scheme into 2011, this scheme gives children a chance to show off their acting skills in their own production of the show which could lead to performing on stage with the cast in London’s west end. Moving away form London, our next song if from the Sound Of Music. Currently touring the UK the sound of music stars the nations Maria, winner of the BBC’s how do you solve a problem like Maria – Connie Fisher.
That was ___________ from the sound of music. You can see the show on tour at the Bristol hippodrome until the 7th December where the tour will move to Oxfords new theatre. Now we are going to move on to a more upbeat musical – something everyone knows. Oliver, hear is ________
This is the Encore show on stratcast.co.uk and that was defying gravity from Wicked. This year wicked celebrates its 5th year in the west end and currently stars Lee Mead, the winner or any dream will do 2007. This next song is from one of my favourite musicals – this is what a feeling from Flashdance.
Chicago was first seen in the west end in 1979 after spending 4 years on Broadway. Our net song is the opening to the show, performed by the character Velma and is possibly the most memorable song from the show. You’ve guessed it. This is the cast of Chicago with All That Jazz.
Welcome back to the encore show on stratcast.co.uk unfortunately we are nearing the end of our show but I am sure we can squeeze a couple more songs in.___________ is from a music that started in 1971 and was later adapted into a film in 1978. Grease started off in Chicago as a non-musical performance called grease lightning. Theatre producer Ken Waissman saw the show and suggested to the writers that the show might work better as a musical so grease was born and stole the stage in Broadway in ’72 and then in the west end in ’73. So here is it. __________.
We have now come to our final number is a well known hit from a 1987 film which was adapted for the stage in 2004. Before we play our final song may I remind you to tune into stratcast.co.uk tomorrow to see Stratford college does children in need live. And stay tuned today for ____________

Radio analysis.
BBC1 - Fearne CottonFearne Cotton's show is a national music based chatty programme played weekdays from 10am - 12:45am. Targeted audience would be ages 16-24 as the presenter herself is very young and bubbly which comes across in her presenting along with guests and co presenters. By looking at the listening figures on rajar, BBC 1 which is where Fearnes show is based is listenend to by about 20%.
Its played at a time where an audience is either at work or college. College average breaks would be inbetween 10 and 12:45 in the morning so student inparticular would have chance to get to list to it, whether it's inside or outside lesson. The music used on the show is quoted as 'pop and chart' which is relevant for the audience.
With this radio show there is many features such as life web cams, this tells us that its DAB/ online platform for broadcasting. I had noticed there isn't a sound bed on Fearnes radio show. This could be due to the fact that the audience is busy working (basing that on the time slot) so they don't want anything extremely distracting.
understand.

Production Techniques - Running order
A running order is to prepare and organize the presenter of what items are going to run in, placed in a logical order. This includes, songs, idents, links, and content for the presenter to talk/discuss about. Timing is often used on running orders to keep the radio show on time without running over. When creating a running order, either on a document on a computer such as Celtx/word document or even printed, a lot of space is left for the presenter to make any notes on them. Here is a running order from ‘The Chris Moyles show’.
Friday 14th August 2009 The Chris Moyles Show with Vernon
06:30 - News and Sport
06:35 – Vernon and the team are broadcasting live from Edinburgh, the home of Scott Mills the Musical. Vernon recaps on his cameo role last night and is still excited about it all
07:00 - News and Sport
07:15 – Dave gives his report of the Musical shenanigans recorded live last night at Pleasance in Edinburgh
07:30 - News and Sport
07:40 – Vernon and Dave find out who was the better driver from their trip to Rockingham on Wednesday. It was a close call, but overall Vernon was the winner and, if there was no one else available, could be Schumacher's replacement.
08:00 - News and Sport
08:05 – Vernon rubs it in that he was victorious at the race track
08:20 – We play clips of Vernon’s big moment treading the boards in Scott Mills The Musical. We hear his rendition of MC Hammer’s ‘Can’t Touch This’ and his venture into a bit of freestyle break dancing. It is quite impressive.
08.30 – News and Sport
08.40 – The registration doors of Car Park Catchphrase are officially open! We hear one of the best moments from yesteryear and are all looking forward to more golden moments from next week onwards.
09:00 - The Golden Hour part one - 1998
Air – ‘Kelly Watch The Stars’
Bare naked Ladies – ‘One Week’
5 – ‘Everybody Get Up’
The Verve – ‘Sonnet’
Fat Les – ‘Vindaloo’
All Saints - ‘Under The Bridge’
The Beautiful South – ‘Perfect 10’
As you can see there are times written on every item that’s coming up. I’ve noticed that some things are bold and some things aren’t. These are to make more important things stand out to the presenter, in this case, Chris Moyles. I had found this on the BBC website, so it does look more presentable than what it would look like on the desk in the studio. Where there are songs, when it comes to doing our show, we will be more specific and include song times so we could roughly predict how long our show will be and how much time would have left. The running order is also used for something to fall back on, to prevent dead air on the show. Depending on what style of show you are producing will depend on how detailed the running order is. For example, if it’s a chatty show, for the content, there will be little information where as if it’s a documentary or factual show, the information will be a lot more in depth.
